Meal Planning

Still cleaning out the freezer and delving into the pantry.  The fridge is mostly cleared.  Here is what I have left to use up around the kitchen:  bread, burger buns, container of unidentified frozen puree of some kind in the freezer (smells like Dole Whip -- I've put it in the fridge to thaw and we'll confirm later), leftover vegetable manchow soup in the freezer, one more serving of vegetarian French onion soup from Trader's Joe's, part of a jar of pesto, just under a pint of heavy whipping cream, part of a jar of marinara, part of a jar of pizza sauce, a bag of mixed snacking olives, garlic hummus.  Here is what I'm making:

 

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and Tomato Soup

I'm making this tonight because I want to eat grilled cheese and it'll use up the last of the bread before I go grocery shopping tomorrow. I'm going to serve the snacking olives and the hummus with baby carrots alongside this.


Vegan Quiche

Upon Sim's request for a quiche because she said it sounds good and she can't remember the last time I made one.  Also because I have a small amount of spinach I could use up on this.


Pasta Primavera with Pesto Alfredo and Soy Curls

This will use up the jar of pesto and the heavy cream.  

 

Vegan Penne alla Vodka

Seems redundant after the other pasta, but it'll use up any extra cut vegetables as well as the various open jars of tomato-based sauces in the fridge. 


Pizza

Because I have mozzarella and parmesan and I haven't made pizza in a long time.


Black Bean Quesaritos

Because we all want to eat this.  

 

I need to look through my Vedge cookbook and see what favorites I haven't made in awhile.  Maybe the Korean eggplant tacos with kimchi mayo. ]


I also have everything necessary to make red beans & rice.



After I buy a green cabbage:

 

Veggie Spring Rolls Fried Rice

 

Chilli-Garlic Noodles 

 

Gochujang Noodle Stirfry 

 

[Edited 12/10/2021: The frozen cylinder was indeed leftover homemade Dole Whip. We ate it.]
